Managing Initiators
In a vSHARE HP VMA SAN Gateway environment, the hosts (for example,
database servers or application servers) that access LUNs are called initiators and
the HP VMA SAN Gateways themselves are called targets .
The Initiator Management page enables you to define initiator groups and add or
remove initiators to those groups.
vSHARE enables you to control access to LUNs on an initiator-by-initiator basis
or by defining initiator groups (igroups).
